Job Description

OPmobility is a global leader in sustainable and connected mobility solutions, with a deep-rooted history dating back to 1946 when it was founded by Pierre Burelle. Formerly known as Plastic Omnium until its rebranding in 2024, the company has evolved into a cutting-edge player within the automotive industry, focusing on technology-driven innovations that enable safer, smarter, and more sustainable transport. OPmobility specializes in four key areas: exterior and lighting systems, the integration of complex modules, energy storage technologies with a keen focus on hydrogen and electrification, as well as embedded software and digital solutions. This diverse portfolio underlines OPmobility's commitment to addressing the challenges of modern mobility through industrial excellence and relentless innovation. The company operates on a vast scale, boasting 152 factories, 40 R&D centers, and a workforce of nearly 38,100 employees spread across 28 countries, achieving an impressive 11.5 billion in revenue projected for 2025. This massive global footprint allows OPmobility to balance global scale with significant local impact, driven by a common goal of accelerating the energy transition within the automotive sector.

The Environmental Health & Safety (EHS) Manager role at OPmobility is an essential leadership position within a single-site manufacturing facility. This is a long-term, at-will contract expected to commence in August 2026. The successful candidate will take ownership of ensuring that the facility complies with a variety of critical standards and regulations including OSHA, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, and OHSAS 18001, alongside federal, state, and local environmental, health, and safety laws. This role demands a knowledgeable professional who can oversee environmental compliance programs addressing hazardous waste, solid waste, wastewater, stormwater management, air permitting, and air quality assurance. The EHS Manager will also spearhead workplace safety initiatives, maintaining OSHA-required programs, accurate logs, and prompt reporting and investigation of accidents and incidents.

In addition to compliance oversight, the EHS Manager will lead the site's Safety Committee and maintain comprehensive emergency response plans. This individual is responsible for safety training programs, certification, and record-keeping, particularly for forklift operators and other required safety courses. Serving as the facility's representative for ISO management systems positions the EHS Manager at the core of operational excellence and sustainability efforts. The role requires coordination of recycling operations, ensuring regulatory compliance, fostering waste segregation, and promoting continuous improvement initiatives. Further responsibilities include managing site security personnel and activities such as access control and asset protection, as well as leading the Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) program through development, training, auditing, and compliance monitoring. This key position supports continuous improvement and corrective action efforts, playing a vital role in sustaining a culture dedicated to safety, quality, and environmental stewardship.

OPmobility offers a dynamic, international work environment where innovation thrives—not as a mere buzzword but as a core daily function. This role provides opportunities to develop expertise in environmental compliance, safety management systems, and operational excellence while contributing significantly to impactful safety and sustainability projects. The company values diversity, inclusion, and equality, emphasizing fair consideration for every candidate and encouraging diverse perspectives that fuel bold ideas and progress in the future of mobility. Working at OPmobility means being part of a forward-thinking enterprise where advanced technologies and industrial leadership intersect to create meaningful change within one of the world's most critical industries.
